Lotte Plaza Market is not your typical supermarket--it's an entire experience. From the moment you…read morepull in, one thing becomes clear: this place operates on a completely different scale. The parking lot is spacious and easy to navigate, which already sets the tone for a smooth, stress-free visit. Once inside, you quickly realize just how expansive this market truly is--you could easily spend an hour (or more) exploring every aisle without even noticing the time go by. What makes this market stand out is its depth and authenticity. As an Asian supermarket, it offers an extraordinary range of products that go far beyond what you'll find in standard grocery stores. The produce section alone is worth the visit--fresh, vibrant fruits and vegetables, many of which are unique or hard to find elsewhere, are beautifully displayed and constantly restocked. As you move through the aisles, you'll discover an impressive selection of: Specialty herbs, spices, and seasonings Authentic sauces and condiments from across Asia An entire world of noodles, rice varieties, and pantry staples A wide assortment of snacks, beverages, and imported goods If you're cooking Asian cuisine, you will find absolutely everything you need here--no exceptions. It's the kind of place where both home cooks and seasoned food lovers can get inspired just by walking through the aisles. Beyond groceries, Lotte Plaza Market feels more like an international marketplace. You'll find plants, beauty products, and specialty items, adding to the overall experience and making it more than just a place to shop--it's a place to explore. A helpful tip: since many items are imported, be mindful to check expiration dates on packaged goods, and keep an eye out for promotions. Some products can be on the pricier side, but there are definitely great deals if you take a moment to browse. One of the highlights--and honestly one of the main reasons I return--is the indoor food court-style dining area. There are several small eateries where you can order directly at the counter. While the setup is casual and straightforward, the food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and satisfying--perfect for a quick and delicious stop during your visit. To elevate the experience even further, the market also features a French bakery, along with beauty boutiques and a hair salon, giving it the feel of a small international plaza rather than a traditional grocery store. Overall, Lotte Plaza Market delivers on every level--selection, authenticity, and experience. Whether you're shopping for specific ingredients, discovering new products, or simply stopping in for a quick bite, it's absolutely worth the visit. Even if you're not familiar with Asian cuisine, this is the kind of place you go to explore, learn, and enjoy something different. If you haven't been yet, I highly recommend making the trip--you'll understand why the moment you walk in.

Just be a mouth breather while you shop and you will be fine haha.

In the meantime, I will drive to this location when I'm in the area or to the Dr. Philips location. This location is the worst when it comes to parking so I avoid it like the plague whenever possible. I lucked out today and snagged a spot within minutes of pulling in to the parking lot. The issue is there are several stores sharing a very small parking lot. Very poorly planned by the developers. I can usually find everything I need at this location with most items being in stock. My friend however struck out on 2 items being sold out today. Good prices, selection and quality keeps me coming back for more.

We had an amazing server too. Devonte, you went above and beyond to make our night special & memorable. He reviewed the menu and gave us recommendations that were sure to please the palate! The chateaubriand for two was the best I've ever had and having it served table side, was a nice touch. This steak melted in your mouth and the flavor was pure perfection! Kudos to the chef, the server and the owners of this wonderful restaurant. We will most definitely be back!!

I can't believe I haven't written a review for Mazzaro's Italian Market yet. Every time I'm in the…read moreSt. Pete area, I make it a point to stop by. I absolutely love the ambiance, incredible selection, and variety of fresh, prepared, and packaged foods they offer. It's always busy -- and honestly, I've never seen an "off" time -- but that's part of the experience. I could easily spend hours wandering from room to room. One area has fresh vegetables and prepackaged dinners, another features spices tucked into a small alcove, while another is filled with wine and cheese. Then there's the main room, which houses a coffee bar, bakery and dessert counters, grocery items, a meat counter, and the deli where you can order made-to-order sandwiches and other freshly prepared foods. Everywhere you turn, there's something new and amazing to discover. This visit, I ordered the Hot Italian sub, and it was outstanding -- huge, flavorful, and packed with delicious ingredients. Every bite was fantastic. And yes, I happily ate the entire thing fresh while sitting outside on the covered patio. If you still have time before they close -- their hours are somewhat limited and closed on Sundays -- be sure to check out the kitchen store and gelato shop next door as well. They're the perfect addition to the experience and make it even harder to leave without discovering something else amazing.

Wawa first came to Orlando several years ago, though its roots are firmly entrenched in the…read moreNortheast. Being from the Northeast, I can honestly say that Wawa is a place that will forever hold a place in my heart. And that feeling is echoed by many Floridians, who have embraced this chain and called it a part of their home. What's not to love about Wawa? It is a gas station, but it goes beyond what a gas station is it shows what a gas station should and could be. Yes, they have a convenience store. What gas station doesn't? However, in addition to gas and the before mentioned convenience store, Wawa is most endeared for their sandwiches. These sandwiches are made fresh 24/7 and are definitely a step above what most gas stations carry. Primarily I would order an Italian sub, but I have also been buying their cheesesteaks lately. Both are good recommendations. So, yes, I would recommend here.

We stopped here on the way to a VR experience, which felt appropriate--because Wawa already operates on a higher plane of reality. You don't pull into a Wawa. You dock. Like a spacecraft refueling before re-entering the chaos of Orlando tourism. Every other gas station is out here playing checkers. Wawa is running a Michelin-adjacent, caffeine-powered chess gambit while smiling politely. The place is clean--suspiciously clean. Like someone's mom just walked through and said, "Absolutely not," and fixed everything. The coffee station alone has more options than most marriages. Hot, iced, sweet, bitter, existential--whatever flavor of despair or hope you're carrying, Wawa's got a button for it. The food? This isn't "gas station food." This is food that embarrasses restaurants with tablecloths. Hoagies that show up hot, correct, and unapologetic. Breakfast items that make you question why you ever paid $24 at a brunch place with exposed brick and regret. And the staff--they care. No sighing. No eye-rolling. No "you again?" energy. Just smooth, efficient competence, like they've all agreed this is a serious operation and we're not messing around.

They have a light system similar to Disney which shows you which stalls are in use and which are available. Makes the bathroom experience seamless. Once you're done there you can explore all they have to offer!! They offer a bunch of food options, and everything is made fresh. This time around we tried the pulled pork mac and cheese and the brisket mac and cheese. Both were amazing. The mac itself is super cheesy and indulgent. I also got the chicken salad which is so yummy and the cookie dough is a must for a sweet treat. They have a huge counter where you can order some jerky and also sample it. If you prefer the pre-packaged bag, they also have that available. They also have a ton of merch with clothes and household items. They even have their sauces and seasonings available for purchase. It's always packed but don't let that deter you. The cashiers work fast and efficiently, and it doesn't take much to get out. There are a bunch of gas pumps and EV chargers available to fuel and charge up while you're shopping. This makes any road trip that much better!

My cardiologist is only 3 minutes away, so I do stop by after my appointment. Yes, the place is massive, it's like Walmart merged with a truck stop. But what they sell is more fun than Walmart! My favorite things to get here is their beef jerky and the fudge! I stock up whenever I visit. They have so many types of jerky and they will let you taste any one you want. There are many food choices, yet I have not eaten anything, but plan on it one of these days. This is a fun place for a visit at the very least. If I lived closer, i would definitely be here more often.
